from Dollar Bin Bandits · host Dollar Bin Bandits
Talk about an eclectic career! JayJay Jackson started out as a cartographer, drawing street maps in the days before GPS. She also did schematics and production design for various outfits, including Texas Instruments. Somehow, she parlayed this into a gig as a designer (and later art director) at Marvel Comics. She also colored comics and ads, including those for Spider-Man, Punisher, and Alien Legion. More importantly, JayJay met Jim Shooter there, and became an indispensable part of his subsequent ventures at Valiant, Defiant, and Broadway Comics. She even did some painting for Topps cards, including Universal Monsters, Vampirella, and Star Wars Galaxy.JayJay is now a freelance illustrator and writer, and you can follow her work at jayjayjackson.com or on Instagram @jayjayzee._____________________Dollar Bin Bandits is the official podcast of TwoMorrows Publishing.
